Abstract

In single screw refrigeration compressor (SSRC), the Multicolumn Envelope Meshing Pair (MEMP) was proposed to reduce the wearof the meshing pair. However, the application of this new type meshing pair will change the thermodynamicperformance of SSRC. It is necessary to research the thermodynamicperformance of the SSRC with MEMP to evaluate the value of the proposed MEMP. In this paper, a theoretical calculation model describing the working process of the SSRC with MEMP is established to predict the thermodynamicperformance of the SSRC. Experimental investigations on the performance of a SSRC with MEMP under different conditions are also carried out to verify the theoretical calculation model. Obtained results show that the theoretical calculation results are in good agreement with the experimental ones, which means that the presented theoretical calculation model is a powerful tool for performance analysis of the SSRC with MEMP. With the validated model, thermodynamicperformances of the SSRC with MEMP have been analyzed. The SSRC with MEMP is proved to have high volume displacement and volumetric efficiency butneeds slightlymore shaft power. The maximum increment of shaft power and volumetric efficiency of SSRC with MEMP is 5.06% and 3.7% respectively in all working conditions.
